This Week Wedding Channel Asked... How Did You Know That Your Dress Was "The One"? Here’s what our brides had to say.
"I put on a dress that I had NO intention of trying on (bridal shop owner suggest it) and just did not want to ever take it off! Comfortable, flattering and perfect!" Michelle
"It was the best of both worlds... long and elegant for ceremony and it unzips to a hot liltle dress for the reception! I can't wait to see my fiance's eyes when he sees me in it." Julie
"I didn't want to take it off and as soon as I put it on I envisioned myself at our reception having a blast." Nicole
"Because there were so many things about that were on my 'no' list and I still kept going back to it. Eventually I stopped fighting it and realized it was exactly what I wanted. I'm so happy it was what I chose and I'm still in love with it. Now if I could just find another reason to wear it again...." BeesFroggie
"It made me cry…and my entourage too!" Erica
"I'd tried on many others and it dawned on me, my dress was the very first one I saw in the magazine. I ordered it blindly. I haven’t tried it on, but did try on some similar. I am 100% confident that it is 'the one'!" Allison
"My maid of honor's draw dropped said "wow, Kirsten!" I looked in the mirror and saw too!" KirsteAlecia
"I had been looking at a local big name shop and didn’t fall in love with anything. Went to a bridal show and really liked some of the dresses in the fashion show. I discovered that they came from a small town that had a little boutique there. I went in one weekend to look with my mom, and the shop owner asked me to try it on. I would have never picked it for myself and I fell in love with it! And it fit almost perfectly! " Kelly
"I tried on a ton of dresses and then my consultant picked out the final dress. When I put it on and looked in the mirror I felt butterflies and started to cry. And then our wedding song came on. It was definitely the one!" Alyssa
"It was perfect in every way. The princess look on a budget. Plus, it looks fabouloousssssssse on me!" Monica
